Fitting an inspection into a Manor Lakes purchase

Cooling off, auctions and getting the report while it can still change your decision.

Manor Lakes 3024 · 23 March 2026

In short: A report only helps if it arrives before you are committed. Timing is part of the inspection.

Private sale

Most private sales in Victoria allow a three business day cooling off period, with a small deduction if you withdraw. We aim to inspect and report inside it.

Auction

There is no cooling off at auction, so the inspection has to happen beforehand.

Conditional contracts

Some buyers make the contract subject to a satisfactory building inspection. Your conveyancer or lawyer drafts that condition.

How fast we work

Usually same week, with the report inside 24 hours.

What to have ready

The agent's contact for access and a note of anything that already worries you, such as a crack or a damp smell.
